ToolTip always on top?

[firstmagic 0]

I use some autoit scripts in an application that runs in fullscreen mode. I use tooltips to let me know what state the script is in, as well as to list what keys do what (eg. "F1: blah, F2: foo, F3: exit script").

Under windows 2000, the tooltips were 'always on top'. Even when I switched into my 'full screen' application. Under XP and Vista, however, this no longer happens. The tooltips are hidden by the app and I no longer have access to those visual cues.

I've searched around but am unable to find a solution to this problem.

Any help?

I don't get that problem. You could try something like this

If WinExists("[CLASS:tooltips_class32]") Then 
 WinSetOnTop("[CLASS:tooltips_class32]",'',1)
 EndIf
